What song are you learning?

Ive started this one a few times but never finished it all the way through, it’s a great Robbie Shakespeare Bassline, I’m trying with fingers but I think Robbie played it with his thumb, so I’m trying both ways at the moment

I've gone a bit disco lately amongst other things :

• Money by Pink Floyd, interesting time sig and is OK until you get to the boring guitar solos (like most PF tbh)
• Staying Alive by BeeGees, have isolated the bass and its not really what I was expecting, glad I haven't tried to wing it
• You should be Dancing by BeeGees
• Stomp! Brothers Johnson - its cool but on a five string muting is a challenge
• Sofa by Wolf Alice - they have lots of nice bass lines / parts (Beautifully Unconventional also v cool)
• Flesh for Fantasy by Billy Idol - love this, its not hard but its fun
• Been working on getting Queen 'Its a kind of Magic' accurate and up to speed,  I feel like i need it in my back pocket

I need to get some flares .....

Stomp - such a cool bass line👍🏻

Surprisingly difficult to get the rhythm but worth it

Floods by Pantera. 

Rex Brown must be one of the most under appreciated bassists. The bass groove behind Dimebags epic solo is just brilliant. There's nothing particularly hard to play but there's a lot to remember.
